My plan involved a wire-wrap wire "bracelet" and a megohm resistor. Connecting the other end to a bare metal part of the case is sufficient? I don't need an actual ground?
No you need an actual ground. If the case is left plugged in this would be sufficient but is probably a bad idea for other (obvious) reasons. Find something else to attach the strap (or whatever) to and make sure it's grounded.
the case has to be grounded to the same ground or it won't do much good.
The new plan is to connect myself to the case through a megohm resistor and the case to a heating vent through another megohm resistor.
